Rape epidemic in educational institutions needs urgent attention
Manage episode 438579173 series 2910805
The sexual assault epidemic raging across the country is now making its presence felt in educational institutions, from those of higher learning to primary schools. Over the years, the gender safety guidelines for schools, colleges and universities have been largely ignored and there is little emphasis on gender respect and sex education programmes. Couple that with our centuries-old patriarchy, a faltering criminal justice system and tendency to victim shame, and what you have is a situation in which female students are constantly at risk while the perpetrators feel emboldened. Please listen to the latest episode of All Indians Matter.
